Just read that article. Does techcrunch have short term memory loss? Google had this for a while in their engine, but removed it because it didn't work well. For reference, there were up and down arrows next to the results(believe they were arrows), which allowed results to be ranked higher on an individual basis. This trained the algorithm to be custom tailored for the use and probably was also fed into the overall ranking.
They removed it, because it didn't prove to be valuable when compared to other metrics. Odd TC didn't include this information when writing this piece. Seems fairly relevant.

EVERYTHING above fold was ads, not sure what you're talking about. Ads and probably most people didn't realize that they were ads. Google, no doubt A/B tested the text and colors to fool the users.
